ENDOMETRIOSIS, THE END OF A TABOO

Endometriosis is a condition that affects one in ten women worldwide. However, the general public still knows very little about this condition and is often misdiagnosed by the medical profession.

The testimonies of Athénais and Aurélie touch on this taboo topic: How to envisage the future when you realise that medicine can only mitigate symptoms that are sometimes extremely disabling? Is motherhood possible when the disease has caused infertility? How do deaf patients manage in this situation when faced with a cruel lack of reliable information?
